Can you call me crazy? Yes! I the midst of a move I took on a few too many projects. One of which was a wedding cake. I'm posting about it because it was almost my doom. I had made a few cakes before and loved using the fondant icing. This time I thought I'd do the marshmallow version instead of the bland fondant dough. So Thurs. I started the cakes, a three tiered cake with two layers on each tier. While the cake was baking I started 3 batches of marshmallow fondant. All seemed to be going right on schedule so I was very pleased. Friday morning as soon as the kids went of to school I began icing and layering the cake. I guessed I'd be done by lunch. Just not so...I mixed up butter cream frosting and iced in between each layer. Then I iced the bottom tier, rolled out the fondant and found it extremely sticky so I added more powdered sugar, still sticky, added water as suggested in the recipe. Still sticky I kept adding more powdered sugar and finally felt if would work and gently folded it over to lift up on the cake...no, no, it stuck together so I started the process again of adding p. sugar and rolling. Over and over I worked this only to have it tare apart each time I tried to place it on the cake. I didn't realize it at the time, but it is very susceptible to moisture and boy was it a humid day. I was so frustrated, after working for almost 4 hours on it and messing up all the fondant (due to the butter cream on the cake) I finally lost it. I cried so hard I was shaking. I was so mad I just wanted to throw the cake at the wall! I went and showered, sobbed some more, hoping that I'd get an idea of what to do to solve the problem. I used all the butter cream icing (now ruined). I used almost all the fondant, now ruined, and the cake had to be at the reception in 5 hours. I didn't want to admit defeat and run to walmart to buy a stupid cake so I kept praying I'd know what to do to fix the problem. I asked Jason to run to the store and pick me up the regular fondant. While he was gone I cleaned up the table and prepared to begin again. When he got back I rolled out the fondant and walla it went on perfectly. I rolled the other two tiers and covered them. I then added color to two small piles of the fondant and rolled them out to add for a ribbon look around the base of each tier. In the end it looked good, however, over time at the reception I noticed the flowers were pulling down on the cake so it leaned some. I still have so much to learn still. I was just grateful to have it done!
